Nylon, the durable and elastic material, is like other plastics made from chemicals found in fossil fuels. Biodegradable plastics based on biomass-derived compounds are attracting attention as an ...

For each structural strain of tau fibrils, they identified amino acids without which the strain cannot form its signature ...

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have developed an artificial photosynthesis technology that produces precursors of biodegradable nylon from biomass-derived compounds and ammonia.

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have synthesized biodegradable nylon precursors using biomass-derived compounds like L-alanine. The process incorporates artificial photosynthesis with solar ...

The team believes that the structure was in use until the 8th century BCE, the middle of the period when the Kings of Judah ruled. A scarab seal from the 8th century BCE uncovered during the ...

Notably, pathways involved glutamate metabolism including “Glutamine and D-glutamate metabolism” and “Alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism” was changed dramatically, which presented as the ...

Salmonellae are globally important Gram-negative bacterial pathogens that infect a range of hosts and cause several diseases, including gastroenteritis and typhoid fever. Orally ingested bacteria ...

This mechanism suggested that upon the protein interaction with the ice lattice, the complex structure reaches the lowest optimum energy level, which is the most favorable position for the polypeptide ...
